This book, together with a sextant, will enable sailors to navigate confidently and safely when out of the sight of land. <p/> The book continues to feature the well-received additions of the past few years, including forms to help determine True Altitude (for the sun, stars and planets), Calculated Altitude (using the versine formula) and Azimuth (using the ABC Tables), as well as a pro forma for calculating Intercept. With 8 extra pages and an improved layout, there is plenty of space for making notes and calculations.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Nothing I have seen comes near to the sensible format which I see before me" --<i>Tom Cunliffe, RYA Yachtmaster Examiner, author and sailor</i> <p/>"Slim, modestly priced volume with clear, easily retrievable information" --<i>Cruising</i> <p/>"You and your sextant could be lost without it" --<i>Yachting Monthly</i> <p/>"I confidently recommend this system to my friends.
